I have been involved with the Bazaar project for some time and am willing to provide what assistance I can. What problem(s) are you having? What version of Bazaar are you running?
I have few questions: 1. How can I tell (programatically) which branches does a repository have, or alternatively, clone them all at once? or, if a project doesn't have sub-branches, how can I tell ? Example: The "gNewSense" project page is this: https://savannah.nongnu.org/bzr/?group=gnewsense It lists the following command where "branch" is a placeholder: bzr branch bzr://bzr.savannah.nongnu.org/gnewsense/branch How can I tell the possible names for "branch" in this project? Obviously I can manually visit the web page at: http://bzr.savannah.nongnu.org/r/gnewsense , but I want to do it programmatically in a script. I have found only two related discussions on this, and both did not work for me: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/19082720/getting-all-bazaar-bzr-branch-list-with-bzr-command https://answers.launchpad.net/bzr/+question/51062 2. How can I get a custom log format in an easy way ? I want to get the commit's date, revision id, user email, user name, and first subject line. In git, something like: git log --format="%H %at %ai %ae %an %s" In hg, something like: hg log --template "{rev} {date|hgdate} {date|isodate} {author|email} {author|person} {desc|firstline}\\n" I don't want to write any custom plugins for this - sounds like something that should be easy enough to do without writing code.... 3. I seem to have problems cloning a large repository on a virtual machine with limited RAM (512MB, but likely ~380MB free). For example, when trying to clone the emacs repository at "http://bzr.savannah.gnu.org/r/emacs/";, I get a lot of "Killed" messages (I guess due to OOM), and the clone fails. Of of these are done on a Debian 7 x86-64 with bzr version 2.6.0dev2 (debian package version 2.6.0~bzr6526-1). Thanks! - Assaf
